I can't open old .mm file which has been created using older version of this program.

Obsolete. Even when launching it shows a message asking to install Java 1.5 (a very old and now unsafe version of Java) in order to properly run Freemind. So, I uninstalled Freemind and now I'm using Freeplane, which is a modern and powerful alternative.

Comments and Reviews
Been using it for almost a decade. On Windows 10 it has some bugs. The last stable version was written in 2014 (see sourceforge )
You should be fine if running it under Windows 7
If you want to keep using the FreeMind codebase I'd recommend sticking with the Freeplane fork rather than FreeMind.
They're taking care of the .mm community quite well so far.

Simple and free!
I don't believe this project has been discontinued. Latest update is 2019-12-11.
FreeMind is my favorite mind map tool, it's free, easy to use and looks simple and clean.
